Head's 1975 single Say It Ain't So, Joe became a national staple in France
Murray Head has been feted in France since the mid-1970s, when his hit song Say It Ain't So, Joe became a national staple. "The thing about the French is, they are very, very faithful. When they like you, they stick with you," he says. "In the UK, everyone is chased out by the next media sensation."Head pictured acting opposite Glenda Jackson in1971's Sunday Bloody Sunday
A very early and very silly music video shows Head lip-synching unconvincingly to the Superstar hit single in the rafters of a bombed-out church, while a group of Trinidadian backing-singers mimes the chorus down below. Murray also acted - notably in the 1971 hit Sunday Bloody Sunday. But his main ambition was musical. He had an early start in 1964 when he won a competition run by Radio Luxembourg which led to a recording contract.
